CVE-2025-22829

The CloudStack Quota plugin has an improper privilege management logic in version 4.20.0.0. Anyone with authenticated user-account access in CloudStack 4.20.0.0 environments, where this plugin is enabled and have access to specific APIs can enable or disable reception of quota-related emails for any account in the environment and list their configurations.

Quota plugin users using CloudStack 4.20.0.0 are recommended to upgrade to CloudStack version 4.20.1.0, which fixes this issue.

Weakness

The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
